Our last week in Chicago went by very fast. We said goodbye to Yocco, who went back to Pennsylvania. I was sad to see her leave, but I know it won't be long until I see her again. My Nana and Pop-Pop are taking good care of her while we are away so I know she's in good hands.

On Halloween night, the cast had a "Scary Poppins" party! It was a lot of fun. Everyone dressed up and we played games, ate food, at voted on the best costumes. The party was at Aqua and the decorations were fantastic!

The next day, we headed over to the Museum of Science and Industry. THIS PLACE IS HUGE. There was so much to do and see. We had a good time checking out the U-505 submarine and all the other cool exhibits. I wish we went to this place earlier during our stay because there was too much to see in one day. Hopefully we get the chance to come back again!

This week we finally got to do a double decker bus tour of Chicago. I did the same bus tour a year and a half ago when I was here with Beauty and the Beast and I've been telling everyone how much fun it is. We learned some cool facts about Chicago and got to see some interesting buildings, statues, shops, and areas around town. My favorite stops were the Hershey store and the Lego store!

Now that Halloween is over, it seems like all of the stores are decorating for Christmas. Macy's revealed their HUGE window displays that they've had covered up for a few days while they were putting them together. It was really cool to see all the details of the displays. A lot of them were automated and had some cool special effects.

After a very busy and exciting month here in Chicago, our time has come to an end! The tour is off to Canada! Although I hate to say goodbye to Chicago, I'm looking forward to spending the next few months in Toronto! We have 12 Canadian cast members who are anxious to be performing so close to home! Stay tuned for more to come soon...

About Me

Thanks for following along while I blog about my amazing experiences on stage and in front of the camera. My mom and I started this blog to record my fantastic memories while on the road with Disney's Beauty and the Beast. I played "Chip", the teacup for almost an entire year. I got to visit and perform in 42 cities and I had an amazing time! My other favorite roles and shows have been Fulton Theatre's 'Chitty Chitty Bang Bang' (Jeremy Potts), Walnut Street Theatre's 'Oliver', Civic Theatre of Allentown's 'A Christmas Carol' (Tiny Tim), 'Seussical Jr.' (JoJo), 'Abe Lincoln in Illinois' (Jimmy Gale/Tad Lincoln), 'High School Musical' (B-Boy), 'Cabaret' (Boy Soprano Soloist), 'Parade', and 'Willy Wonka Jr.'(Oompa Loompa).
I have so many amazing people in my life that love me and support my talents like my TERRIFIC family, my AWESOME friends, and my FANTASTIC teachers. I can't thank you enough for all of your support!
I'd like to give special thanks to those who have helped me grow and improve on what I love to do...especially William Sanders, Pam Rice, Roni Gerry, Shawn Salevsky, Lois Waelchli, Bob Marks, Jen Rudin, and my agents, David and Dina, at Generation TV!
